Hi to all who corresponded on this trivial and amusing topic,

My post may get lost in this morass, BUT

I have been looking for good online books on Javascript, This has been
mentioned in other posts, and one that was recommended from MSDN is quite
good.

Can I ask you, Kevin, what books you found ?

Well, for example, there are entire books on JavaScript online. In

been having to teach myself lately, for the work I'm doing.

ok, use Google almost every day but never thought to use them as a
instruction book for FP or Java.
thanks

Got to find a book that has these type of answers.

How about Google? There are very few answers I haven't been able to
find there.

REM, now that brings back memories :-) In javascript it's // eg
// floatimages[0]='cloud14.gif'; - this will be ignored

var floatimages=new Array();
floatimages[0]='cloud14.gif';
floatimages[1]='sunan2.gif';
floatimages[2]='tornado5.gif';

I 'borrowed' this floating image script.
But I would like to be able to select which of the images are
floating around.

I know I could just 'cut' the lines but I probably will want to
change them back and forth.

So is there a way to REM out a line like in the 'ahem' old days
when I actually had an idea of what I was doing????

Thanks Steve. That could actually be useful information!

Hi Trevor,

The only one I use at present (my needs are relatively simple with regards
to JavaScript) is the MSDN Library's online DHTML Objects reference, which
is not a complete JavaScript reference, but is a complete reference to the
Browser Document Object Model and how JavaScript can interact with it, via
Properties, Attributes, and CSS Styles:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/workshop/author/dhtml/reference/objects.asp

I used to use the Netscape reference, which IS a complete JavaScript
reference, but have not used it for several years, so hopefully someone else
here can give you the latest URL for this.

BTW, Steve, you sound like a pilot. My app will be deomonstrated at the
Danville exhibition of the NASA SATS project in June. Not sure if I will be
there, but I might. Got too much work to do.

Hi Trevor,

It's not a book or a reference but I particularly like www.quirksmode.org
for DOM stuff.

Not a pilot, but a maintainer. Navy jets for 25 years.
3 years of it as an airframes and aerodynamics instructor.
3 years of it as the Maintenance Chief for the Blue Angels.

The rest in A-6A Intruders, A-7 Corsairs and S-3 Vikings.

If your control / input device has "feedback sensing" another thing to consider / remember
is that roll rate increases with airspeed, as does the resistance to stick input.

In other words, for a given amount of control deflection, roll rate increases with
airspeed.
As does pitch and yaw.

Trevor -
I have one published by O'Reilly called 'JavaScript The Definitive Guide'. I like
the O'Reilly books a lot.

Interesting.

There was an article in Aviation week and Space Technology at least 10 or 12 years ago (
or more ) about a test that was performed with GPS.
They placed receivers on each wingtip and the fuselage of an aircraft and then flew some
maneuvers with it.
Among other things, they determined they could compute the g load on the aircraft by
recording the deflection of the wing tip receivers as compared to the fuselage mounted
ones.
